She's Walking!

On March 15th Stinky's Momo was holding something that she wanted so she pushed off of me and just walked to her. We were able to get her to do it again for the camera. So while this isn't her exact first steps they are steps that came soon after. She is still learning and every day the ratio of crawling to walking changes more and more in favor of walking. This past week she realized that when she walks she can carry items in her hand. She has enjoyed this new found freedom with her toys.

Walking for me has been the most scary of all developmental changes. It looks like she is going to face plant at any time. With her hands in the air she slowly teeters from one side to the other. On cement it is the worst. I am however looking forward to less dirt stains on the knees.

About Me

I am a new mommy of a little girl we call Stinky and a little boy we call Pluggy and I am retired teacher of young children. I say retired because I hope to embark on new adventures in the world of careers when I go back to work. (That may be many many years from now and I will be a very very different person.) For now I love staying home and enjoy every minute of being a mom even the poopy ones.
